Thanks... RC

Sorry for the delay. Yes. With a JL Audio Sub having its own Amplifier, you would connect a McPre, such as your C47, directly by running both a left and right channel output directly to the JL Sub.

As I learned this week, the sub will SUM both channels internally. If you had a crossover such as the JL Audio CR-1, it would take those left and right inputs and sum them for its sub output. And in that case you would only use one cable for not the left (mono) input of the JL Sub.
